2. Functional Overview 2.1. Memory Interface AMD Radeon RX 460 has four (128-bit) DRAM sequencers. Each DRAM channel is 32-bit wide. All DRAM devices must be of the same type, have the same size on each channel, and must run at the same voltage. 2.2. Acceleration Features Support for DirectX 12 (Feature Level 12_0) features, including the full-speed 32-bit floating point per component operation: Shader Model 5.0 geometry and pixel support in a unified shader architecture. Support for OpenGL 4.5. Support for OpenCL 2.0 Support for Mantle Support for AMD LiquidVR Anti-aliasing filtering: 2 /4 /8 MSAA (multi-sample anti-aliasing) modes are supported. A multi-sample algorithm with gamma correction, programmable sample patterns, and centroid sampling. Custom filter anti-aliasing with up to 12-samples per pixel. An adaptive anti-aliasing mode. Lossless color compression (up to 16:1). Anisotropic filtering: Continuous anisotropic with 1 through 16 taps. Up to 128-tap texture filtering. Anisotropic biasing to allow trading quality for performance. Improved anisotropic filtering with unified non-power of two-tap distribution and higher precision filter computations. Advanced texture compression (3Dc+ ). High quality 4:1 compression for normal and luminance maps. Angle-invariant algorithm for improved quality. Single- or two-channel data format compatibility. 3D resources virtualized to a 40-bit virtual addressing space, for support of large numbers of render targets and textures. REV 1.0 Page 4 of 13 2017
Up to 16k 16k textures, including 128-bit/pixel texture are supported. Fully associative texture, color, and z-cache design. Hierarchical z- and stencil-buffers with early z-test. Lossless z-buffer compression for both z and stencil. Fast z-buffer clear. Fast color-buffer clear. Z-cache optimized for real-time shadow rendering. Z- and color-compression resources virtualized to a 32-bit addressing space, for support of multiple render targets and textures simultaneously. 2.3. Display System The display system supports accelerated display modes on multiple independent display controllers. The full features of the display system are outlined in the following sections. Up to four independent display controllers that support up to true 36-bpp (bits per pixel) throughout the display pipe. Support for each display output type up to the following display timings: DisplayPort 1.3 up to two 5120 2880 pixel resolution display @ 60 Hz refresh rates on two single stream (SST) DisplayPort 1.3 outputs, and up to four 3840 2160 @ 60 Hz or 4096 2160 @ 60 Hz displays HDMI 2.0a (6 Gbit/s) up to four 3840 2160 @ 60 Hz or four 4096 2160 @ 60 Hz outputs Dual-link DVI up to two 2560 1600 @ 60 Hz or 1920 1200 @ 60 Hz Single-link DVI up to four 1920 1200 @ 60 Hz Support for up to four independent display timings on DisplayPort, HDMI, or DVI interfaces Advanced video capabilities, including high-fidelity gamma, color correction, and scaling for High Dynamic Range (HDR) or Standard Dynamic Range (SDR) HDCP supported independently and simultaneously on all HDMI, DVI, and DisplayPort outputs Note: HDCP is available only to licensed HDCP licensees and can only be enabled when connected to an HDCP-capable receiver Supports HDCP version 1.4/2.2 protection for the HDMI interface Supports HDCP version 1.1/2.2 protection for the DisplayPort interface Supports HDCP version 1.4 protection for the DVI interface REV 1.0 Page 5 of 13 2017
Support for Stereo 3D displays through HDMI, DisplayPort, and DVI. Includes frame-sequential and frame-packed full Stereo 3D modes. Also 2D frame- compatible modes including side-by-side, top-and-bottom, line interleaved, and pixel interleaved Line or pixel interleave Stereo 3D mixing supported without the use of graphics shaders by using two display pipes for left and right and blending together immediately before the display output; this improves the Stereo 3D performance. 2.4. DVI/HDMI Features Advanced DVI capability supporting 10-bit output when using dual-link DVI up to 1920 1200 @ 60 Hz Supports industry-standard CEA-861-E video modes including 480p, 720p,1080i, and 1080p, and 2160p. Supports AMD FreeSync technology on HDMI using AMD's vendor specific extension: Fully HDMI compliant Requires at least one display that is capabale of AMD HDMI FreeSync technology Maximum pixel rates for 24-bpp outputs are: DVI 165 MP/s (megapixels per second) for single-link DVI DVI 330 MP/s for dual-link DVI HDMI 594 MP/s 2.5. DisplayPort (DP) Features Supports all the mandatory features of the DisplayPort Standard Version 1.3 and the following optional features on all links: HBR3 (8.1 Gbps) support ACM packet-type support ISRC packet-type support Y-only colormetry DisplayPort Multi-streaming Transport (MST) allowing up to four display pipelines to drive a single DisplayPort interface (provided the DisplayPort link bandwidth is not exceeded) Supports AMD FreeSync technology, which dynamically synchronizes the refresh rate of a display with the frame rate of the GPU: Based on DisplayPort Adaptive-Sync technology Requires at least one display that is capable of DisplayPort Adaptive-Sync technology REV 1.0 Page 6 of 13 2017
Each DisplayPort link can support three options for the number of lanes and three options for link-data rate as follows: Four, two, or one lane(s) 8.1-, 5.4-,2.7-, or 1.62-Gbps link-data rate per lane Supports all video modes supported by the display controller that do not oversubscribe the link bandwidth The following table shows the maximum pixel rates for four, two, or one lane(s) at 8.1-Gbps link rate. 18 bpp 24 bpp 30 bpp 36 bpp One Lane 360 MP/s 270 MP/s 216 MP/s 180 MP/s Two Lanes 720 MP/s 540 MP/s 432 MP/s 360 MP/s Four Lanes 1080 MP/s 1080 MP/s 864 MP/s 720 MP/s 2.6.
